I loved this as a kid, loved re-runs on TV but had never seen it on the big screen. While the glimpse they offer of 2015 is a bit fanciful, otherwise it has stood the test of time. Turns out I love it on the big screen too! (48 words)

Wow, who would have thought that a film about industrial action undertaken by scarf headed 70's Essex girls could be such a joy. Sally Hawkins as Rita is engaging and charismatic, Richardson as Barbara Castle is formidable, fantastic supporting cast and inspiring true story. Came out feeling lucky and grateful. (50 words)

Slow start to this comedy about two bored and irresponsible men forced to mentor troubled youth turned into a very funny feel good tale. Rudd and Scott are well cast but Glee's Jayne Lynch is a scene stealer. Well worth a look. (42 words)

Contrived, self indulgent, full of national stereotypes, with a ludicrous plot. Oh dear. This was no better than the overhyped first movie however, if enjoyment is about the people you're with as much as the quality of the film, it was a fun night. Clothes were cool though! (48 words)

Wow, super violent, super funny, this movie lived up to the hype. The teenager super hero wannabe gets caught up in some real life big crime and has to work with disgraced cop Nick Cage and his bad ass adolescent daughter. Big guns, cool costumes, top tunes. (47 words)

John Travolta and Robin Williams co-star in this buddy movie about a man who suddenly has to look after twin 7 year old children he never knew he had. Fun set pieces and silly side characters but ultimately just a bit lame. These old dogs should know better. (48 words)

Amy Adams makes a vague attempt at a rom com in this cliched story of a woman who follows her boyfriend to Ireland to make a leap year proposal, only to suffer misadventure and fall for the man who helps her. Uninspiring. (42 words)

Slightly cliche'd tale of white young female teacher (Swank) in inner City LA School bringing inspiration to gang land kids. But based on a true story and with Anne Frank as a surprising source of fascination for the kids it was a cut (slightly) above. Watch on TV. Don't buy! (50 words)

A futuristic tale of a world being exploited by humans for its natural resources. The natives commune with nature and an avatar of a human soldier learns their ways and hopes to save them from destruction by humans. A fantastic (if long) film which has special effects AND great acting! (50 words)

Although not very authentic, this Guy Richie adaptation of the Conan Doyle character is a non stop adventure. A bit 'conspiracy theory' as is in vogue but Downey Junior and Law are both well equipped to play the leads. Good support too. Improbable but terribly fun. (46 words)
